已经明确呼吁采取行动改变建成环境和应对气候变化的威胁。然而,为了支持能源需求政策的制定、执行和持续评估,需要有强有力的证据基础,以确定相关关系,并确定人口内部最终使用能源需求结果和差异背后的根本原因。提出了一种新的终端能源需求研究方法,该方法建立在流行病学的跨学科健康科学研究框架基础上,并建立了一个研究中心。一个案例表明,通过“能源流行病学”方法,可以推进强大的、人口水平的、以经验为基础的研究基础。能源流行病学是一种注重实证研究的全系统方法,为培养物理学家、工程师、社会学家和经济学家从事跨学科工作提供了一个方法论框架。将流行病学方法应用于最终用途能源需求研究,将提供观察和描述能源需求趋势和模式的手段,开展干预性研究并将其纳入背景,并在导致与能源需求有关的结果或事件的因素之间建立强有力的联系。这种做法将加强证据基础,以便为政策决策提供信息,并评估过去的干预方案或监管行动。
The call for action to transform the built environment and address the threats of climate change has been clearly made. However, to support the development, implementation and on-going evaluation of energy demand policy, a strong evidence base is needed to identify associations and establish underlying causes behind outcomes and variations in end-use energy demand within the population. A new approach to end-use energy demand research is presented which is founded on the interdisciplinary health sciences research framework of epidemiology, along with the establishment of a research centre. A case is made that through an ‘energy epidemiology’approach a strong, population-level, empirically based research foundation can be advanced. Energy epidemiology is a whole-system approach that focuses on empirical research and provides a methodological framework for building physicists, engineers, sociologists and economists to engage in interdisciplinary work. The adaptation of the epidemiological approach to end-use energy demand studies will provide the means to observe and describe the trends and patterns of energy demand, to undertake and contextualize interventional studies, and to establish strong associations between factors that lead to an energy demand-related outcome or event. Such an approach would strengthen the evidence base to inform policy decisions and evaluate past intervention programmes or regulatory actions.
